United States Coast Guard Investigative Service (CGIS)
The Coast Guard Investigative Service (CGIS) is a federal investigative and
protective program established to carry out the Coast Guard's internal and
external criminal investigations; to assist in providing personal security services;
to protect the welfare of Coast Guard people; to aid in preserving the internal
integrity of the Coast Guard; and to support Coast Guard missions worldwide.
The Coast Guard Investigative Service is a federal law enforcement agency
whose law enforcement authority is derived from Title 14 of the United States
Code. This authority provides for Coast Guard special agents to conduct
investigations of actual, alleged or suspected criminal activity; carry firearms;
execute and serve warrants; and make arrests.
Today CGIS is comprised of approximately 90 active duty military and civilian
special agents and 150 special agents who are members of the Coast Guard
Reserve. In a period of declining budgets and personnel resources, CGIS
remains firmly committed to providing effective law enforcement services, with
minimal financial impact to the taxpayers of the United States.
